I was watching with no sound, because my wife was sleeping, so I have no idea what the reason for that whistle was. Anybody have any insight?
Haven't read the story tref posted but I saw Salvatore chicken wing and evidently blow his whistle. I think he anticipated the foul and then there wasn't one.
